I also attended the South Carolina Book Festival in Columbia, where I got a chance to meet a lot of authors and go home with a lot of books (and did I tell you I got to meet Eric Jerome Dickey?). I have also been away for a while due to my busy schedule. I did a lot of volunteering for the Obama campaign in my hometown, which involved a lot of phone calls and paperwork. After the president won reelection (YAY!), I started to get prepared to go to Little Rock, AR for work. I spent almost a week there and even got to go on my first plane ride (it had been pretty much cars and buses before this).
